Are private gun sales (sales not conducted by a licensed dealer) in Utah required to conduct a background check on the buyer?

Yes, in all cases
No, never
Yes, but only for handguns
Yes, but exemptions apply

The correct answer is: No, never

In Utah, private gun sales that are not conducted by a licensed dealer are not required to conduct a background check on the buyer. This exemption from background checks for private sales is a key aspect of gun laws in Utah, making option B the correct answer. This means that individuals can buy and sell firearms amongst themselves without going through the federally mandated background check process that is typically required when purchasing a firearm from a licensed dealer.
